Hearst Tower
Hearst Tower on Eighth Avenue in Manhattan is a glass tower of 2006 by Norman Foster rising from the retained six-storey Art Deco base of the 1928 Hearst Magazine Building.
Why it matters
Included because the join is the point: a 1928 cast-stone base was left standing and hollowed out, and the new tower starts above it without disguising the seam.
